Middle Eastern Restaurants near Union, NJ

“Food is fresh & tasty. Staff are very nice too.“

“Absolutely Incredible Experience! “I cannot recommend Alkofeia highly enough! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm hospitality that made us feel right at home. The authentic Palestinian flavors were absolutely unforgettable — every dish was vibrant, rich, and perfectly seasoned. The fresh homemade pita, the perfectly spiced lamb ouzi, and the shawarma platter were all standout dishes. The portions were generous, the service was friendly and attentive, and the cozy atmosphere just added to the whole experience. The attention to detail, from the olive oil appetizer to the dessert, showed how much care goes into every plate. This is hands-down one of the best Middle Eastern restaurants we’ve ever visited, and we’ll be back again and again! Highly recommend to anyone who loves real, heartfelt cuisine.” ❤️“

“Really enjoyed the food at Gigi Halal Food! The falafel over rice was fresh, flavorful, and filling, and the burger was juicy and delicious. The portions were generous, everything tasted fresh, and the service was great too. Definitely a good spot for tasty halal food. Would happily come back again!“

“It was a wonderful experience trying Lebanese cuisine for the first time. I love everything my daughter-in-law ordered. My favorite was the Old City Platter. I got to try different things. The hummus plate was awesom❤️‍🩹“

“I dined in and couldn’t be more pleased with the service me and my sister received. The owner was extremely welcoming!

We ordered a mixed shawarma combo dish to share and it came with 2 appetizers. You get to choose the appetizers that you prefer & we chose baba ganoush & yogurt salad. Both appetizers made excellent dips with the bread provided.

I loved the lamb in this dish. It was flavorful. I added the yogurt salad on top for that perfect taste!

They also provide catering options for all types of events.

I will definitely recommend this place to friends and family in the area! So glad I stopped by and can’t wait to come back soon.“

The Ghormeh Sabzi, Koobideh, Joojeh Kebab, and even the Ashe Reshteh tasted so authentic. Everything was perfectly seasoned, fresh, and full of love. The restaurant feels cozy with warm, tasteful decor. The husband and wife who own and run the restaurant are also incredibly kind and welcoming. They make you feel right at home, which makes the whole experience even more special. Truly a five star experience. I’ll definitely be coming back.“
